Fatorda MLA Vijai Sardesai on Sunday launched two water infrastructure projects under the Union government’s AMRUT 2.0 scheme, costing a total of Rs 4.10 crore. The Rs 3.32-crore Dongorwaddo project involves constructing two 800 KL ground-level reservoirs and laying 1,750 metres of 200mm DI pipeline to address water shortages in Dongorwaddo and Gauliwada.
Sardesai thanked the Pereira families for donating 1,200 sq m of land and Oliver Couthino and Zajito Gomindes and their families for facilitating access. The Rs 78.23-lakh Agalli project involves replacing the 35-year-old AC pipeline with 1,827 metres of 100mm DI pipeline to improve supply reliability, prevent breakdowns and avoid repeated road cutting.
